Canned November 2024, drunk 2/20/25.
Clear, medium-amber with a gigantic, dark beige head that is well-retained.
Fruity (hops) and maybe a bit of fruitiness from the medium malts. But not too much toast, no huskiness or big acidity. Clean and with good minerality and deep base malts adding rich baguette and hints of caramel. Low hopping, though this is also 3 months old.
Rich and malty with spicy hops and a firm, but not-overdone bitterness underneath, to balance. Light caramel, low toast, lots of honey and baguette-like malt character. Lower carbonation, a bit loose at points. Not incredibly crisp/snappy on the finish, but it's not a major point of contention. Certainly a tour de force in malt flavor and texture, and at only 4.3% abv. Would just like a bit more yeast character and maybe a touch more acidity/bitterness on the finish.

Canned 11/13/24, drunk 2/15/25.
Clear, dark, some deep brown tones. Medium-sized, light-tan head, moderate retention.
Cocoa, light roast, good mineral and easygoing overall due to the soft, creamy, nutty oat addition. Fairly aromatic, clean, though not tons of base malt breaking through.
Lighter-bodied, with mild roast and good bitterness. I wouldn't hate a little more oomph in the body, but it's still flavorful, clean and stout-like with a light, soft, chewy texture and very minor chocolate notes.

Can pour during team virtual happy hour that I scheduled. fairly light colored pour, touch watery looking. nose is rich herbal and thick wet grass. tastes much the same with some sourdough, minerally, and light florals. richer mouth feel than look would suggest.

Canned 4/17/24, drunk 5/27/24. Clear brass. Large, white, rocky head. Clean, polished, somewhat round, honeyish malts with hard water/mineral and actually not all that much intensity from hops, though it is over a month old. Very clean. Light herbs and freshly cut grass linger. Sweet malts with lingering herbal hops. Good attenuation, perhaps could be a shade higher, but there's ample bitterness for the most part. Very, very clean with not overdone hopping. Good minerality.
